Existing models are not realistic because they apply crisp computation. Hence, a model using Interval Fuzzy Type-2 (IT2) method was proposed in our previous work. IT2 method was selected because it has better ability than Fuzzy Type-1 and crisp methods in handling uncertainties. However, the introduction of an extra component and a degree of freedom has made IT2 method computationally expensive. Therefore, it is proposed that the IT2-based web services' evaluation model to be implemented on high performance computing (HPC) platform. This paper reviews previous research that are related to HPC-based IT2 implementation as well as discusses the implications of the work. © 2016 ACM.
